I doubt Glenn will stay on the team through next year and I'd rather have Norwell, who is 7 years younger than Yanda, but that's just my personal matter of preference. If we're going with a young QB I want the best line possible in front of him and I don't have a problem paying for it.
Sounds good to me.
O-line is something I definitely don't mind us investing a lot of money into.

Deja vu all over again. Seems like one year ago Today I was reading the exact same thing.
A year, 16 games, and playoffs and I read the same
I have no idea if he'll be back or not. Well know within a couple of months. I think its far from a certainty.
He was worse this year than last year, and last year he had to take a pay cut to stay.
So, it'd be a huge shock if somehow he was kept. -
With the way our run defense was, I'm not surprised at all. Combined with the inability to pressure the QB, the line earned their rankings.

Lattimore's impact on the Saints' D goes far beyond the numbers. He dramatically changes the way they play coverage. Both he and White are fine players.
So he didn't even make the list from this weekend?
And Cam threw all over the place (like a lot of teams end up having to do against the Saints), so he had more opportunities to make plays than White.
Again, not saying Lattimore isn't deserving, I'm just saying I don't see White as far beneath him.

Well you also have to look at snap count. Lattimore played in nearly 4 less games.
Fair point, but on the opposite end I could argue Lattimore was in a better situation for stats as the Saints were putting the hurt on people and forcing opponents to pass to play catch up.
The Bills let people run on over them, and never really put anyone away to where they'd have to ditch the run game and focus solely on passing. Lattimore got more picks just by virtue of teams having to play catchup all the time. Buffalo was ranked 29th in rush defense, so opponents never had to throw much against us, while the Saints were ranked 16th.
Not sure how much of a factor any of that is, and I acknowledge Lattimore is good (and deserving), but I think considering the circumstances White had working against him proved he's equally as capable.-

How is Lattimore on there but White isn't?
They're both CB's, and their stats are extremely similar.
Lattimore White
-52 Tackles -69 Tackles
-1 Forced Fumbles -1 Forced Fumble
-0 Fumbles Rec. -2 Fumbles Rec.
-5 Interceptions -4 Interceptions
-18 Pass Def. -18 Pass Def.
-1 TD -1 TD
Ok so what makes Lattimore worthy of a nomination but not White?-

I am happy for both of these guys (although I wish they were both on the Bills).
Both of these guys also had a lot of critics on this board.
Usually it's the people defending the bad QB play. They say everyone else is the problem... "It's the crappy receivers!" or "It's the crappy OC!" or "It's the crappy O-line!" or "It's the crappy coaching scheme!"
But I'm happy for these guys, especially Woods. Granted paying him as much money as the Rams did wasn't going to happen, especially with our cap situation at the end of last season, but many guys slack off once they get paid. Woods didn't, and he exceeded expectations, helping a young QB grow & gain confidence in the process. -
Yes, definitely.
But then again, it doesn't matter if we trust the process, it matters if the players do. As long as they have McDermott's back, I'm happy. -

How can we adequately rate any of the receivers on this team without seeing them get steady targets and accurately thrown balls. We have no idea how good this WR core actually is Jordan Matthews was the #1 on the Eagles and KB was #1 on the Panthers mixed with Zay who needs to shake the dropsies and Deonte a decent deep threat I think our receiving core could be sneaky good with better QBing.
100% right. And Deonte gets open deep quite a few times a game, yet how often does TT make use of that a game?
Almost never. And when he does throws deep, expect it to go sailing out of reach & out of bounds. -

He will be better. His QB was not very good.
His QB definitely wasn't very good, but he made plenty of mistakes himself. I really hope he turns the corner and breaks out next season, as it seems he lost his confidence this year with TT throwing to him.
Also Matthews will be significantly better by virtue of a new QB. I mean he never had less than 800 yards receiving in any season before TT, and he didn't have good QB then either. Just shows how poor the passing game was this season.

It's been apparent for two seasons.. TT hit his ceiling the first year - downhill since
Definitely, but last season you could hide your head in the sand and try to use the "efficient" argument along with "well he works great for our offense!"
But his flaws this season shined through bright as the sun, and illuminated his deficiencies more than ever before. -
Thompson could've easily closed the distance and moved towards the ball to prevent the INT, especially considering the DB did just that and was further away from the ball than he was.
However, I do not want to see Peterman as the starter next year unless he somehow just lights it up in camp & preseason, and earns that spot surprising everyone (like Russell Wilson).I don't see it happening, but stranger things have happened. I just hope we put serious effort into getting a franchise QB in the draft, and even FA if they find a guy they think is a great fit.
1 hour ago, SaviorPeterman said:One of my contacts close to the QB situation texted me this morning while I was in high level meetings, to paraphrase he said the following:
"Savior (obviously not my real name), if NP was starting yesterday the Bills probably would have won. But now the Taylor experiment is over and Beane is going full steam ahead with NP being the starter heading into 2018. Beane is in love with this kid but look for a few other power moves but no big name QB's drafted/signed"
If true this confirms my own thoughts that NP will likely be the guy and we'll sign another journeyman to compete and back him up.
I highly doubt anybody said this, and if they did, they're not close to the QB situation.
There's really no way I see Peterman as the coach's choice to start next year even before the draft. The Bills have got to be seriously looking for a QB in the draft, as it would be stupid to just hang their hat on someone they thought worthy of only a 5th round pick.
Unless Peterman was getting starting reps the entire week, I highly doubt he'd do great against the #1 passing defense in the league. -
If they got a new QB, I'd hope to see Benjamin, Matthews, and Thompson all return.
We used (wasted) a 2nd round pick on Zay Jones (and we traded up to get him), so given that alone it's obvious he has to stay on. We just have to hope he gets MUCH better.-

I haven't even watched it yet, but if he's saying Tyrod isn't a good QB, then he's right. This whole season highlighted all his issues clear as day to everyone who actually watched.

He had 3 drives at the end and didnt do squat.
The play he got hurt on he had thompson wide open for the 1st down.His problem is that he is a 1 read qb.
19 games lost in a row when they trail in the 3rd quarter is pathetic.Bye Tyrod
And 3-22 when we go down by even a single point in the 4th quarter. Same amount of wins there as JaMarcus Russell.
He's virtually incapable of coming back from even the tiniest deficit. We have to hope we're nursing a lead going into the 4th if we have any shot of winning.
If the defense isn't playing fantastic, we have no chance of winning with Tyrod as the QB. -

I like Tyrod. Good guy. Safe with the football. Able to get us to the playoffs. But he hasn't taken the next step. Plays like a rookie afraid to turn it loose.
Plays it safe but not smart. He's not "efficient" like people try to say. Situational awareness and throwing to the correct receiver are things he doesn't do well.

What am I looking at here
The play he got hurt on 3rd down at the end of the game.
Yet another play with an open man to throw to, that he saw, and then was too scared to pull the trigger & took off running. -

The point is, you're bashing the wrong person/s
The management at OBD went out and found Tyrod, and gave him the job.
His game hasn't changed since he got here.
He is what he is, and you're complaining about him, like it's his fault he's the starting QB for the Buffalo Bills.
Who gave him this job ?
Who were the other QB candidates that he beat out for the job ?
How has Tyrod managed to keep his job for 3 years ?
Tyrod is just being Tyrod and everybody is complaining he's not good enough.
When are you people going to get smart and realize the problem isn't Tyrod ?
The problem is the sh** organization running this show that put him there and left him there for 3 years !
And why isn't there the same level of disgust for the O Line, the D Line, the LB's and WR's ?
They all stink too !
Who's running this ship ?
That's where the problem lies.
Now, let's see how long it takes for this thread to be taken down.
That's a pretty weak argument.
You can say that about every player in the league then... "It's not their fault they're playing, it's the people who hired them for the job!"
"Don't criticize them for being bad, don't point out their limitations, ignore their play on the field, just yell at those in management game after game for signing them!"
That literally applies to anyone & everyone playing the sport. -

He has to stay in Nevada due to conditions of parole, and I think that anywhere else in Nevada might be worse than jail itself.
Ah, didn't know that. Makes sense now.

Sure, I'll say thank you. Thanks, Tyrod for working hard & showing up.
Please be on another team next year, but best of luck.-

4 times in history has a QB thrown 20+ passes for less than 100 yards and won the game and 3 times it has been against the Bills.
It was posted somewhere in here as a WGR tweet or something.
That's ridiculous. Just shows we get that defense built up, but forget something on the other side of the ball.
-
Man, you'd think he'd want out of Vegas after being locked up there.
-
Isn't Incognito mic'd up from time to time? Would be pretty dumb to say anything racist on the tape.
-
I'd like to see Brown return. I still think we need to draft a LB too, but Brown lead the league in tackles this year, and is pretty consistent. He's not going to get to the QB, but he was pretty darn good out there today (as was the entire defense).
Meet the Bills two 1st round picks!!

I don't think Rudolph is going in the 1st round at all. He's a 2nd round pick at best, but I wouldn't be surprised if he slipped lower.
People are high if they think Mayfield is anything like Manziel.
They must forget how every week there was a new "controversy" or social media post of him doing something stupid before entering the league. He was a non-stop party machine, posted pics with celebrities throwing money around, and was constantly looking like he cared more about fame than football.
Mayfield is actually dedicated to the game, and isn't obsessed with being some Hollywood cliche.
